sleeping, reading, photography, going to plays, movies and concerts, people watching, playing Nintendo, shopping, using coupons, your mother, trying to skateboard, tattoos, not doing my homework, Unique Thrift Store, daydreaming, traveling, cheap flights, bike riding in the rain, garage sales, grocery shopping at 3:29am, bread, reading the police blotter in the Niagara Gazette, making gourmet pancakes, laughing, illusions of grandeur, singing loudly in my apartment, thinking, making empty threats, random adventures, riding around Lake of the Isles, being 'neva scared', road trips.
